I am sure by now you have found a realtor to work with to help you purchase properties in the area but in the event you haven't found an agent I am a licensed realtor with a CBR who works in Nassau County I would enjoy the opportunity to speak with you to see if I may be a good fit in helping fulfill your RE goals.

I have often wondered why this accomplishment has left me without a sense of fulfillment.

If however you feel everyday something is missing and you are not fulfilled or happy where you are then you know you were meant for a different path.

I know some will have to take drastic measures to fulfill their mortgage obligations, but coming from the oil and gas industry myself (code pipeline welder for years), I know just how resourceful these workers are and how committed they are to working hard. 

I know two of the bigger ones are MelissaData and InfoUSA.You can try asking each municipality individually, but cooperation and ability to actually fulfill your request in the way you’re looking for will probably be very spotty and I’ve found is usually an exercise in frustration.
